My 4.248 has a "LF22312U781251H" stamped into the engine block (above the CAV). Is the 781251 the "engine serial number" or something else? The decoder calls it a serial number. It doesn't look like the ones used for parts shopping.
My operator's manual says the SN is on the "[b:84f3b60aa0]left rear side of the cylinder block[/b:84f3b60aa0]" which is pretty ambiguous. Is it on the 'left rear' side or the 'left' rear side (if it's on the rear side, seeing it would be impossible due to the battery compartment).
In any case, I can't find any other number except a metal tag on the intake manifold that says "4.248".
